Welcome to the TVPaint Forum.

First mark the frames of interest with an image marker and set the lightable to "Mode Image Mark"

Interesting ! I did not know that was possible by setting light table to Mode Image Mark (or if I did know it at one time, I forgot it).

Hello, thank you for noticing this "About" menu item confusion :) Regarding the "Help" menu problem: according to our tests, this seems to be happening only on ARM Macs. Also, one of our colleagues on Monterey has it, but 2 others on Sonoma don't! Lukas' and fmhansen's signature...
